    DVT is a big worry amongst professional riders, too. A co-worker of mine had an issue with it on a flight once. Not pleasant.

    Please love yourself.

                @Klaus Would depend on the density, of course. The mass is easy enough to calculate assuming 1200 Nm force and say 82kg average mass.

                  @jon-nyc of course it turns out there is an escape velocity calculator...

                  Looks like a planet needs to be pretty heavy before it can prevent you from jumping into the universe.

                          Just straight forward gravity calculations? Doesn’t appear to take into account the fact that some planets do not have solid crust on the surface.
